That late 2009 Ibiza got me again!

[RUM4MO]

I left the late 2009 Ibiza a the airport when we went to Italy for a week last September, it rewarded me by discharging its battery - which I knew might happen so I had taken a booster battery pack with me in the car - that battery draining issue was resolved by getting a BCM S/W update in January this year.

I was driving to the airport yesterday in the late 2009 Ibiza for another week in Italy - and the naughty thing broke a front spring! Okay, these things do happen, first Ibiza job when I get back home!

Too bad when this things happen before a vacation because we spend the vacations wondering about this.
Will you replace one or both?

Oh yes!

I will buy two new springs, but I think that there are other parts on these front struts that SEAT changed on some early cars when owners complained about noises from the front suspension that could not be linked to drop links or ARB bushes etc, I need to find out which parts were upgraded/replaced though there are a couple of parts, maybe bearing and one other, I've forgotten which part.
